00:00Thank you, thank you so much, thank you so much.
00:28Hello and welcome to Millionaire Hot Seat.
00:31It's like pure concentrated who wants to be a millionaire juice.
00:36No lifelines, no hesitating,
00:38and five people waiting to jump into the chair
00:42when someone makes a mess of things.
00:45Let's meet tonight's players.
00:47They are...
00:58Bill Williams from Notting Hill.
01:00Billy Marsden from Greenwich.
01:03And Kevin Sheehan from Derry.
01:06Good.
01:07Now, before the show there was a random draw
01:10to decide who goes in the hot seat first
01:13and the winner of that was Samantha Murray-Smith.
01:16So, Samantha, help yourself to the chair.
01:24Welcome.
01:26Welcome you, Samantha Murray-Smith, a support worker.
01:28Yes.
01:29From Freshwater, wherever that is.
01:30Where is it?
01:31The Isle of Wight.
01:32Isle of Wight.
01:33Oh, excellent.
01:34Well, welcome, first of all.
01:36Fifteen questions to a million pounds,
01:38same as it was in the old show, yeah?
01:40But, couple of changes.
01:42If you don't know the answer to a question, you can pass.
01:45OK.
01:46If you do that, you go and sit over there
01:48and then the next contestant takes your place.
01:51And that's the last time you can pass.
01:53You've only got one pass.
01:54Use it once, it's over, OK?
01:56Got it.
01:57If you answer and you get it wrong, two things happen.
02:01Number one, the top rung of the ladder disappears.
02:04The prize money shrinks.
02:06And the second thing that happens is, you go home.
02:10So, don't get anything wrong.
02:12I'll try.
02:13OK?
02:14Let's get cracking, shall we?
02:15Let's play Millionaire Hot Seat.
02:22OK.
02:24You've got 15 seconds to answer this question,
02:27which is worth £100.
02:29OK.
02:30Here we go.
02:31Which of these terms represents the highest number
02:35on the Beaufort Wind Force Scale?
02:39Gale, hurricane, storm or strong breeze?
02:45Well, out of the four of those, the strongest is hurricane.
02:50Final answer.
02:51And the correct answer.
02:53So, that's £100.
02:55OK.
02:56For £200, this is your question.
03:00In Cockney rhyming slang, which of these body parts would typically be closest to the ground when standing on a flat surface?
03:11Mince pies, plates of meat, boat race or loaf of bread?
03:20Well, mince pies are eyes, boat race is face, loaf of bread is your head, plates of meat are your feet.
03:26So, it's plates of meat.
03:27Final answer.
03:28Absolutely right.
03:29Perfectly worked out.
03:30£200.
03:31Right, this is for £300.
03:35What's the profession of Mark Kerr as portrayed by Dwayne Johnson in the 2025 film The Smashing Machine?
03:48A rock star, demolition expert, MMA fighter or miner?
03:58I'll be honest, I don't know this.
04:00I'm going to pass.
04:02Don't blame you.
04:03Perfectly sensible thing to do.
04:05So, if you'd like to go and sit over there on the chair of hope that you'll be back,
04:09we'll bring out the next contestant.
04:11Welcome, Genevieve Jules-Smith.
04:18Hi.
04:19Paediatric nurse from Neston.
04:20Yeah.
04:21I don't know where that is either.
04:22That's in Cheshire, just outside of Chester.
04:25Chester, okay.
04:26Well, we haven't come far.
04:27It's one good thing.
04:28If it goes wrong.
04:29Um, because I'm sure it won't.
04:32Right, now, here's the rule, I'm afraid.
04:34It's not good.
04:35Because Samantha passed, it means you can't.
04:39Yeah.
04:40You have to answer this question whether you like it or not.
04:43Okay.
04:44So, here it is.
04:45What's the profession of Mark Kerr, as portrayed by Dwayne Johnson in the 2025 film The Smashing Machine?
04:53It's a choice of two, but given that Dwayne Johnson's famous for being fit and a good physique
05:00and everything, I'm going to choose MMA fighter.
05:04Final answer.
05:05You a big MMA fighter fan?
05:08Um, ish.
05:09I'm guessing.
05:10Oh, ish.
05:11I was going to...
05:12Yeah.
05:13I was expecting no.
05:14Doesn't matter though, you're right.
05:15Correct answer.
05:16Well done.
05:17APPLAUSE
05:18And what that means is your pass is now available.
05:22You can now pass if you want to.
05:25Okay.
05:26So, here you go.
05:27£500 question.
05:28Which of these is a type of piercing made on the nose?
05:33Helix, bridge, conch, or upper lobe?
05:38Okey-doke.
05:39I know the helix and the conch are both on the ears, and the lobe is your ear as well.
05:44But you have a bridge on your nose.
05:46I'm going to say bridge.
05:47Final answer.
05:48You are a nurse.
05:49Yeah.
05:50It does help.
05:51And it's really helped, because that's the correct answer.
05:54Well done.
05:55Well done.
05:56APPLAUSE
05:58Again, your pass is still available, and this is the question for £1,000.
06:03Which of these is not an ingredient in a traditional Caesar salad?
06:09Anchovies, croutons, garlic, or feta cheese?
06:16Hmm.
06:17To be honest, I could hazard a guess, but I don't want to at this stage,
06:21so I'm going to use my pass, please.
06:24Absolutely fair enough.
06:26There you go.
06:27Thank you. Off to the end of the queue,
06:28and let's bring out the next contestant, please.
06:30APPLAUSE
06:35Hello, hello.
06:36Hello.
06:37Hello, Claire Farley.
06:38Yes.
06:39Client engagement executive from Windsor.
06:42Welcome to the hot seat.
06:45Now, you know the rules.
06:46You can't pass on this question.
06:48You have to answer it, OK?
06:50Which of these is not an ingredient in a traditional Caesar salad?
06:55This is the worst question for me,
06:58because I'm the most unhealthy person ever,
07:01so I've never eaten a Caesar salad.
07:03Eight seconds.
07:04Five seconds.
07:05I'm going to guess at...
07:07Two seconds.
07:08Anchovies.
07:09Final answer.
07:11A lot of chit-chat, followed by, I'm afraid, the wrong answer.
07:15I'm really sorry.
07:17The correct answer is, in fact, feta cheese.
07:20I'm afraid, though, we do now have to say goodbye to you.
07:23So, ladies and gentlemen, Claire Farley.
07:26APPLAUSE
07:28If we could bring out our next contestant, please.
07:30What a brutal game.
07:31This is so brutal.
07:33Simon Williams, firefighter.
07:36That's right.
07:37In Notting Hill, in London.
07:38That's right, yep.
07:39I'd better be nice to you.
07:40I've got a flat in Notting Hill.
07:42And a daughter in Notting Hill.
07:44Oh.
07:45So, right.
07:46The top rung of the ladder has now gone,
07:48because that was a wrong answer.
07:50This is 250,000, all right?
07:52OK.
07:53Still a lot of money, and you're only ten questions away from it.
07:56Right.
07:57This is the question for £1,000.
08:14Wow.
08:15I know which two it isn't.
08:17Ten seconds.
08:18I'm going to have to use my pass on the answer.
08:23Okey-doke.
08:24OK.
08:25Well, to the back of the queue with you.
08:27We barely saw you.
08:28A blink of an...
08:29You'd have missed you.
08:30And let's bring out the next contestant, please.
08:32APPLAUSE
08:35Right.
08:36Billy Marsden.
08:38Actor.
08:39That's me.
08:40From Greenwich in London.
08:41What have we seen you in?
08:42I've just been a pig in Three Little Pigs.
08:45Oh, I missed that.
08:46Yeah.
08:47Sounds like you were one of the three leads, though.
08:49Yeah.
08:50It was a great part.
08:51I was like a gym pig.
08:52Sounds like a stupid gym pig.
08:54LAUGHTER
08:55All right.
08:56Can gym pig work this one out?
08:59You can't pass, I'm afraid.
09:01Yeah.
09:02This is the question.
09:03Which of these years was a leap year?
09:06My first guess would be 2022, purely because I think I've seen it in another quiz.
09:15You've got five seconds.
09:16So I'm going to lock in 2022.
09:19I don't know what quiz you saw it in, but it was incorrect.
09:22That's the wrong answer, I'm afraid.
09:25So I'm really sorry, gym pig.
09:27It's every four years.
09:28A helpful way to remember the Summer Olympics are always in leap years.
09:31Oh, right.
09:32You can bear that in mind on your way home.
09:34Ladies and gentlemen, Billy Marsden.
09:44So you're Kevin Sheehan, project manager from Derry.
09:47Yep.
09:48I do know where Derry is, so that's good.
09:49Right, now I'm afraid to say that the top prize is £100,000 now.
09:53OK.
09:54We've had two wrong answers.
09:56Still six figures, though.
09:57That's still a chunk of change.
10:00Let's have a look at the question, shall we?
10:05In the sitcom Gavin and Stacey, what are the names of Gavin's parents?
10:11Ross and Rachel?
10:13Pam and Mick?
10:15Hyacinth and Richard?
10:17Or Basil and Sybil?
10:20I haven't watched this show, unfortunately.
10:26But I think it's Pam and Mick, final answer.
10:31Just a guess.
10:32Just a guess.
10:33It worked!
10:34It's the right answer.
10:35Well done.
10:36Mick.
10:39Well worked out, well guessed.
10:41And that means you're facing a £2,000 question.
10:45And you now have 30 seconds to answer the question.
10:48OK.
10:49Because it's harder.
10:50Right, let's have a look at the question.
10:54Who wrote the best-selling cookbook, How To Be A Domestic Goddess?
10:58Mary Berry?
10:59Nigella Lawson?
11:00Delia Smith?
11:01Or Nadia Hussain?
11:05I'm not sure on this one.
11:11I have thoughts, but I'm going to use my pass.
11:15OK.
11:16Off you go.
11:17And let's bring out the next contestant.
11:18Or I should say, bring back Samantha Murray-Smith.
11:21Right, 30 seconds to answer the following question.
11:22Samantha?
11:23Who wrote the best-selling cookbook, How To Be A Domestic Goddess?
11:28I actually have this book at home.
11:29It's Nigella Lawson, final answer.
11:30And the correct answer.
11:31Well done, you see.
11:32Is that your idea?
11:33It was.
11:34Oh, I bet you're kicking yourself now.
11:35Now, it's always a tricky one to know what to do there.
11:36Do you try and help the next person along?
11:37Or do you keep shtum?
11:38Hard to know.
11:39Anyway, that worked out because you have the book.
11:41Right, now, remember, you can't put the next person along.
11:43Because you've used your pass.
11:44This is the £3,000 question.
11:4530 seconds to answer it.
11:46Let's have a look at it.
11:47How many of the 50 US states have a four-letter name?
11:50Two?
11:51One?
11:52One?
11:53One?
11:54One?
11:55One?
11:56One?
11:57One?
11:58One?
11:59One?
12:00One?
12:01One?
12:02One?
12:03One?
12:04One?
12:05One?
12:06One?
12:07One?
12:08One?
12:09One?
12:10One?
12:11One?
12:12One?
12:13Three?
12:14Four?
12:15Or five?
12:17OK.
12:18There's Iowa, Ohio, Utah.
12:26Can't think of any more.
12:28So, that's three.
12:32Three, final answer.
12:36You had 15 seconds to think more on that.
12:39I know, but I thought I'd second-guess myself and talk myself out of it.
12:43And you were wise because that is the correct answer.
12:46Well done.
12:48Beautifully done.
12:51But now I'm afraid it's time to take a break.
12:53We'll be back in a few moments.
12:54See you then.
12:55APPLAUSE
12:56Welcome back to Millionaire Hot Seats.
13:10I'm joined in the hot seat by Samantha, who's on.
13:14£3,000.
13:15This next question is worth £5,000, remember?
13:1930 seconds to answer it.
13:21And you can't pass.
13:23Here's the question.
13:24Which of these companies does not use a crown in its logo?
13:31Hallmark, Rolex, Dulux or Pandora?
13:39OK.
13:40Rolex and Dulux definitely do.
13:46Pandora or Hallmark?
13:48Think.
13:4915 seconds.
13:50Don't think Pandora does.
13:51Five seconds.
13:52Pandora, final answer.
13:53Oh, I'm sorry.
13:54That's the wrong answer.
13:55That's the wrong answer.
13:58That's the wrong answer.
13:59That's the wrong answer.
14:00The correct answer is Dulux and you were sure it wasn't.
14:02I think it's crown paint.
14:03Crown paint.
14:04Have a crown.
14:05Oh, I'm sorry about that, Samantha, but you must now go home.
14:09Ladies and gentlemen, Samantha Murray-Smith.
14:11You can bring out...
14:12..umm...
14:13..Genevieve, that would be lovely.
14:14Welcome back, Genevieve.
14:16Now, remember, you left the action when we were on £1,000.
14:18We're now on £3,000.
14:19Top prize, £50,000.
14:20OK.
14:21You've got 30 seconds to answer this question,
14:22which is worth five seconds to answer this question,
14:24which is worth five seconds to answer.
14:26So, the correct answer is Dulux and you were sure it wasn't.
14:27I think it's crown paint.
14:28Crown paint.
14:29Have a crown.
14:30Oh, I'm sorry about that, Samantha,
14:31but you must now go home.
14:32Ladies and gentlemen, Samantha Murray-Smith.
14:33You can bring out Genevieve.
14:34That would be lovely.
14:35Welcome back, Genevieve.
14:37OK.
14:38You've got 30 seconds to answer this question,
14:41which is worth £5,000.
14:44So, here we go.
14:47Which of these wine regions is in the Southern Hemisphere?
14:52Ambruzzo, Mendoza, Napa Valley or Jerez?
14:59Napa Valley is California, I believe,
15:02and Jerez is Spanish.
15:04I think that's the Spanish for sherry,
15:06so there'd be Northern.
15:08Abruzzo sounds, maybe Italian.
15:10So, I don't actually really know,
15:12but just for a guess, I'm going to have to guess at Mendoza.
15:15Maybe it's, like, South American or something.
15:18So, I'd say...
15:20Ten seconds.
15:22Oh, gosh.
15:24Five seconds.
15:25Mendoza, final answer.
15:27Push that close to the wire.
15:30I second-guessed myself at the end, then.
15:33Shouldn't have done.
15:34That's the right answer.
15:35Well done.
15:37Mendoza is in...
15:39Somewhere called Argentina.
15:41OK.
15:42Not an interesting place.
15:43Abruzzo is Italy, Napa Valley, as you correctly say,
15:46is California, and Jerez is Spain.
15:48Good.
15:49Well, now, that's marvellous.
15:50You've got the ladder up to £5,000.
15:52Well done.
15:53This next question is worth £7,500.
15:56Which of these flags was originally designed by the American artist Gilbert Baker in 1978?
16:06The European Union flag?
16:08The Olympic flag?
16:10The United Nations flag?
16:13Or the Rainbow Pride flag?
16:16Oh, gosh.
16:17I really wouldn't know, to be fair.
16:21And I don't even really have anything to go on.
16:24I've been just looking at the date.
16:27So, just looking at the date, I feel like I'm going to say...
16:3115 seconds.
16:32The European Union flag, final answer.
16:38No, I'm afraid not.
16:39Aw.
16:40I'm afraid not.
16:41No, the correct answer is the Rainbow Pride flag.
16:44Aw, OK.
16:45Was 78.
16:46So, I'm sorry about that, but I'm afraid we must now say to Genevieve Jules-Smith,
16:51goodbye.
16:52Goodbye.
16:53Thank you for coming.
16:54APPLAUSE
16:55OK, let's bring out the firefighter again, Simon Williams.
17:00Welcome back.
17:02I should just explain to the ladies and gentlemen at home, the Olympic flag was first used in
17:06the 1910s, UN flag in the 1940s.
17:09The current EU flag was used by the Council of Europe from the 1950s.
17:13I didn't know that.
17:14I thought that was newer than that.
17:15Well, there we are.
17:16Anyway, that's of no concern of yours, or indeed yours.
17:19Top prize now, £20,000.
17:21You've got 30 seconds to answer this question.
17:24You can't pass.
17:25Shall we have a look at it?
17:26Yes, please.
17:27£7,500 riding on it.
17:29Let's go.
17:31Which of these words means incapable of being wearied?
17:36Indutible, innominable, indefatigable, or ineluctable?
17:45OK, so I haven't got a clue.
17:50I can't even pronounce some of them.
17:53Erm...
17:54It's going to have to be a total guess.
17:56I can't even work it out.
18:02I'm going to go for indefatigable.
18:06Final answer.
18:09And the correct answer.
18:12Let's be honest.
18:13It's what firefighters have to do.
18:18Indefatigable.
18:19OK.
18:20So that you don't get tired going up all those stairs.
18:23Indutible is unable to be doubted.
18:27Innominable is unable to be named.
18:31And ineluctable is not able to be avoided.
18:35OK.
18:36You have now just won £7,500.
18:38This next question is worth £10,000.
18:41OK.
18:42Let's have a look at it.
18:43Which of these UK parliamentary constituencies has not been represented by a 21st century Prime Minister?
18:54Kirkcaldy and Cowdenbeef, Epping Forest, Uxbridge and South Royslip, or Hoban and St Pancras?
19:07I know...
19:08I know...
19:10C, definitely.
19:13Because that's Boris Johnson.
19:18A...
19:20Scotland somewhere.
19:21D...
19:24OK.
19:25On the basis of working it out...
19:2610 seconds.
19:27I'm going to go for...
19:29Epping Forest, final answer.
19:34It's not what I'd have gone for.
19:36But you were right.
19:37Well done.
19:39You were absolutely right.
19:41I actually thought it was Hoban and St Pancras...
19:45Oh, well, that's why I got it wrong.
19:46It's Keir Starlers.
19:48Um...
19:49Yeah, Uxbridge, as you quite rightly say, is Boris Johnson and Kirkcaldy and Cowdenbeef is Gordon Brown.
19:54So, yeah, well done you, that's fantastic.
19:57And now, what that means is bad news for Kevin.
20:00Because whatever happens now, I'm afraid you won't be getting back in the hot seat.
20:04Could be good news for you, then.
20:06Could be good news for you, Simon.
20:08Here's how it works.
20:09This is the final question.
20:11If you get it right, £20,000 is yours.
20:13OK.
20:15If you get it wrong, because we're generous souls, we'll give you £1,000 as a consolation prize.
20:20So, it's £20,000 or £1,000 riding on this question.
20:25OK.
20:2645 seconds now to answer it.
20:28Right.
20:29You can't pass. Let's have a look.
20:32Which of these characters has not appeared in a film directed by Ridley Scott?
20:39Hannibal Lecter?
20:41Rick Deckard?
20:43Paul Atreides?
20:46Or Ellen Ripley?
20:48OK.
20:50So, Ellen Ripley was definitely Aliens.
20:53Sigourney Weaver.
20:56Hannibal Lecter.
20:58I've never heard of B or C.
21:02Which of these characters has not appeared in a film.
21:06Not appeared in a film.
21:09OK.
21:11She definitely has.
21:1227.
21:13It's got to be a total guess.
21:14One in three by the sounds of it.
21:15Yeah.
21:16I'm going to say Paul Atreides, final answer.
21:29Yes.
21:30Final answer.
21:35You've just won £20,000.
21:43Nice work.
21:45On a total guess.
21:47On a total guess.
21:49That's fantastic news.
21:50Now, if my house catches fire, I want you round in a jiffy, all right?
21:55Definitely.
21:56Yeah.
21:57Let's have a look.
21:58Paul Atreides was from the Dune films.
22:01Which Ridley Scott didn't do.
22:03Lecter, obviously, was in Scott's adaptation of Hannibal.
22:07Deckard was in Blade Runner.
22:09And Ripley, as you said, is from Alien.
22:10But you're not listening to any of that.
22:11You're thinking, mate, you're going to spend £20,000, don't you?
22:13How are you going to spend it?
22:15I promise my daughter a trip to New York and my son a Manchester United season ticket.
22:21That's a fantastic brace of prizes.
22:24Oh, and my girlfriend a trip to the Maldives.
22:26Sorry.
22:28Well, you are fun.
22:29Your son have fun at Man U, daughter have fun in New York, and you have fun in the Maldives.
22:34Right, ladies and gentlemen, Simon Williams, our winner tonight.
22:37And join me next time when six new players will be here, all hoping to win a million pounds.
22:45See you then.
22:46Well done, mate.
23:07See you then.
23:08See you then.
